-
flections on tho Uoclpro
city Treaty nnd tho
Japaueso
Continued from Ycstirday
The current wages in Japan nro
noxt quoted Tho natives are in
formed that if wo aro going to havo
tlmso wages in Hawaii thoy should
think of tho povorty and hungor
thoro will bo among tho Hawaiians
As cheap labor in required in tho
country for servieo cu tho sugar
-plantations and for other Indus-
triop why should t lit natives be call
ed upon to soil their couutry to pro
vent it So far as povorty and hun
gor are coueornod I ho natives know
full well that thoy Will uot be any
freer from that plague aflor annexa
tion than thoy are how under tho
the rule of tho present government
Thoso prominent loadors must be
awaro of that fact and furthormoro
must kuow that such low wages as
thoy have quoted will uover induce
laborers to come to the count ry
Thoso promiuont leader- say
thoy cau live peaceably nud pros
perously with tho subjects of nearly
all the nations on tho fnen of tho
globe but it will bo difficult to get
along with the Japanese if thoy
should overrun tho couutry Tho
natives aro then informed that the
question of Jnpauosu immigration is
a sorious ono aud should be con
sidered by thorn without delay Tho
Horiousuoss of tho question has tho
appearutico of n Japanese scare
As the present Constitution under
which tho natives aro living disfran
chises them from having any voieo
in tho matter of government how
aro they to be able to consider that
question In fact how are thoy to
considor ovon tho subject of annexa
tion under tho present circumstances
In tho face of these fads there is
no hositauoy ou tho part of tho an
nexation schemer tu ask tho natives
to givo away their couutry boenuso
thoeo sohemors doiro it
Tho natives are told that the
Reciprocity Troaty is iu a shaky
condition Aud a pou picture of
ruination povorty and starvation is
now drawu showing tho result of
tho abrogation of the treaty should
that evont oocur The picture is
rather far fetohod and gives tho
author credit for having at loast
good imaginary ideas Ho evidently
has read Jules Verno Supposiug
tho treaty is iu that condition it is
not so through any fault of I ho na
tives I ho natives existed a number
of years bofore 1870 To holp tho
troaty in its shaky condition tho na
tive is expected to sell his country
Rather rich
Tho natives aro told that thoso
editors of newspapers working
against annexation are advising and
loadiug tho Hawaiians to dostruo
tiou Tho uatives are quite capable
of judging and do judgo for them
selves iu this respect Thoy put
mora reliance on the utterauoea of
thoso newspapers than they do in
the circular issued by those four
prominent londors
Now tho natives are told that
without doubt tho only solution to
all of these vexed questions is the
annexation of Hawaii to tho United
Statos and are advised to pull to
gether for that objuoti Those pro-

poiulod iu thoir efforts for thoy cer
tainly miiHt beimnro of tho fnct that
tho natives will not pay any heed to
thoir apponl Tho natives are not
asked whether or uot thoy desiro
annexation they aro totally ignored
iu that respect They aro advised
to cousidor a subject for which they
havo not any doairej and ono which
undor tho Constitution now exist
ing thoy aro not pornntted to con
sider As has been before Tomarked
tho native will not believe that pros
perity will again dawn upon his
country until tho monarchical form
of government r restored to him
Thoso four promiuont leaders
would have brought more credit to
thomselvos and shown that thoy
truly entertained sincero foolings of
sympathy for thoir fellow inon had
thoy suggostod to their fellow for
oign annexationisls tho advisability
of meeting with and consulting with
the other twenty thousand Hawai
ians on tho question of government
If tho Reciprocity Troaty is in im
pending danger it is so through the
acts of tho annexation schemers
Disaster will bo tho result of their
own folly and greed
As has boon alroady slated a
stablo Government peace proipor
ity and goodwill among men can
reign in this country without resort
ing to tho scheme of annoxatiou
Finally to follow tho wards of
exhortation used by tho prominent
leaders the witter would advito
tho Government and its supporters
uud tho annexationists to cunsidur
well tho present political situation
They will perhaps arrive ut tho con
clusion that the salvation of Hawaii
nudtheir own interests lies in tho
restoration of tho Monarchical form

HAWAIIANS
by iicxitv o OAimn
Hawaii uow thou liest iu tho dust
Struck down by those to whom thou
noor didst wrong
Muto is thy pleasaut voice thy
happy song
Forovor gone thy cnnCdonco and
trustl
Alasl that greed and an unholy lust
For powor aud placo havo turned
thoir hearts to stone
Whoso fathors taught a mercy never
shown
By those unworthy sons But God
is just
And como at last tho day of judg
ment must
Whon force shall yield to right and
wrong shall quako
And with black wings his croakiug
leave shall tako
While justice to wIiofo sword long
clung tho rust
Her brightonod blade Hawaii
through thy foes shall thrust
